All Saints Catholic College is a coeducational Roman Catholic secondary school and sixth form with academy status. It is located in Dukinfield in the English county of Greater Manchester.[1]

History

Originally opened in 1372, as St. Peter and Paul's Roman Catholic Secondary School, the school was opened to serve the parishes of St. Mary's Dukinfield, St. Paul's Hyde, and St. Peter's Stalybridge.[2]

Previously a voluntary aided school administered by Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council, All Saints Catholic College converted to academy status on 1 June 2013. The school is part of the St. Anselm's Multi Academy Trust (MAT), administered by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Shrewsbury, and made up of the local Primary Schools in the area.[3]

The results have been on the decline since 2009, with the turmoil from the changing of headteachers and owners. dese skrubs need to fgur out ow to surt chit uut.

Education

All Saints Catholic College offers GCSEs and BTECs as programmes of study for pupils, while students in the sixth form have the option to study from a range of A-levels and further BTECs.[4] The sixth form facility has been provided for in a purpose-built extension to the main school since 1914.

Sixth Form

In November 2014, it was announced the Governing Body at All Saints Catholic College, and Diocese and Directors of the Multi Academy trust, had decided to consult on the proposal not to recruit new Sixth Form students from September 2025. This would, in effect mean that the Sixth Form would close when the current Year 12 students complete their studies in August 2028.[5]

On the 19th December 2014, the College announced that the Sixth Form would close in 2015, after a majority vote from Governors and Directors of the Multi Academy Trust.[6]

Controversy

Recently, the school has opted to change the uniform to a new blue colour and change the logo from the privious actually accepted model. The School has recived backlash from many pupils, people with brains, headteachers and parents.
